Pocket Frogs Gaming Guide

Races

In the race format, the frog you choose shows up with 4 other frogs,
all of the same level. Your frog has an amount of speed and stamina,
which determines the max speed your frog can go, and how long it can
hold that speed. As your frog races, its happiness level decreases.
During the race you have the option of using a potion to revive your
frog's happiness. If you win, you have the option to select an opponent
frog to keep, or a prize of coins. Second and third also receive coin
prizes, but do not get to take a frog.

Puzzles

Puzzles are games that make your frog's happiness bar go up, you can
win coins, potions, frogs, and habitat backgrounds. You have to get 3 or
more frogs of the same color in a row and facing the same direction.
Once you do that, the lily pads they're standing on light up. Once you
have all the lily pads lit you win a prize

Pocket Frogs is a game developed and published by NimbleBit for the Apple App Store and Android Market.
It was released as a free game with additional in-app purchases. The
aim is to earn money by breeding and selling your own frogs.

When the game begins, the player owns two frogs, a Cocos Bruna Anura
and a Green Folium Anura, one regular habitat, a nursery habitat, and
1000 coins. In the pond view, players control their frog, eating flies
to tame it, which makes it happy, breeding with other frogs players
find, and finding presents. Presents include various breeds of frogs,
potions (for quick frog growths and races), stamps (for quick delivery
of mailbox items) and coins (which you use to order frogs in the
Froggydex, Catalog, or FrogMart, and to order sceneries or habitat
backgrounds from the Supply Shop). Your potions and stamp count are
located in upper left corner of the screen, your XP is located in the
upper right corner of the screen, your coin count is located at the
lower left corner of the screen, and the back/menu button is located at
the lower right corner of the screen. Besides taming the frog, eating
flies increases their happiness and, if they are not yet mature, can
lessen the time left to maturation. The size of the flies vary and the
bigger the fly the happier the frog. You receive approximately 10% of
the frog’s value in experience points when they are tamed and it takes
3x the rarity of the frog in flies to tame them. Frogs can also be
gifted via Game Center. The game is set in real time, which means that it may take up to 2 days
for a frog to hatch and grow into an adult. You level up by earning a
set amount of XP which increases with every level. To level up you need
to get the required number of XP, or experience points, located in the
top right corner during game play, to automatically level up to the next
level. The highest level is 115, at which your score to level up
becomes negative one even though you have passed to a non-negative
number.

Main Glitches

There are two main in-game glitches that can be used to make money and level up faster. They are:

Racing Cheat -(Does not work on Android) the easiest and most
risk-free method of "cheating". There are two ways a player can perform
this cheat. First, the player races a selected frog and takes first
place. The player then selects the option to take an opposing frog.
After this the two options come into play:

Option 1 -After winning a race and selecting the "Take Frog"
option, the player taps every desired frog at the same time, and
selected frogs will be mailed to the player's mailbox, providing that
there is sufficient space.Option 2 -The player selects a single frog, and after the
dialogue box prompting you to accept the frog or cancel, the player
"rubs" the location in lanes where the frogs are sitting behind the box.
The "rubbed" frogs will be shipped to your mailbox, and in some cases
the player ends up with the same frog twice. This method can be used to
obtain the same frog multiple times.

Mailbox Cheat -The most dangerous cheat of all is called the
"Mailbox Hack", "Mailbox Cheat", or the "GCA (Green Callaina Anura)
Cheat". The player empties the mailbox except for one frog, delivered.
The player then places the frog by tapping the nursery simultaneously
with TWO fingers. The frog will be in the nursery twice, and in the
mailbox once, and the mailbox will have 255 random frogs and items in
it. This cheat has been reported to remove frogs from the Froggydex
without a way to restore them, freeze the app, alter the app icon on the
home screen, make frogs un-selectable, place frogs in the mailbox that
are not delivered or take -1 stamps to deliver, and place "null" items
in your mailbox. Players will then have to wait until the problem is
fixed, restart their device or completely reinstall the app and start
over. For this reason this cheat is very unpopular among earnest
players.

More Cheats

Inifinite Daily Prizes Cheat -After you collect the daily
prize, exit Pocket Frogs and go to Settings > General > Date &
Time > Set Date & Time (if "Set Date & Time" is not an
option, turn off wireless and it should appear), and set the time
forward/backward 1+ days, then return to Pocket Frogs, get the daily
prize, set the date back to present time, and collect the daily prize
again. This cheat can be repeated over and over again to get how ever
many prizes thou doth desire. However, Androids can only time travel a
few times. If you do it too much, Pocket Frogs will crash.

Fast Maturing Cheat -You might wonder how to make an egg mature almost immediately... Well, it's possible! -There are 2 ways to do this:

1: Select the frog you want to breed with and go to the
breeding screen, then change the date to preferably 2 days in the past,
return to Pocket Frogs (still on the breeding screen) and breed with the
frogs you want to breed with. Then change the date back to present time
and go to the nursery, your eggs should now be fully grown mature
frogs!2: If you already have the egg/hatchling you watch mature
during present time, then change the date to preferably 2 days in the
past, return to Pocket Frogs, then change the date back to the present
time, and your egg should be a fully grown mature frog!
While it is not clear what other cheats are being used, there are
various cheats allowing users to falsify their accomplishments, thus all
high scores listed in the leaderboard (Coins, XP, Lifetime Frogs, Flies
Eaten, Pond Presents, and Gifts Sent) are not true and actually reflect
players ability to hack the software. For example the Pond Presents
leader (as of 3/28/2012) claims to have collected 1215752207 presents
which would be equivalent to finding one present every second of every
minute of every hour of every day for 38 years, 6 months, and 18 days.
